Explanationव्याख्या
This source entry is internally inconsistent and should be reviewed before permanent publication.
The printed options list option (b) as 'Sonam Losoong' and option (c) as 'Vesak', but the printed solution says '(b) Vesak'.
The explanation then states that Vesak is a celebration of the Sikkimese Bhutia falling in the tenth month of the Sikkimese lunar calendar and that the festival commemorates the birth, enlightenment and death of Gautama Buddha in Theravada and Tibetan Buddhism.
Because 'Vesak' appears as option (c) in the option list, the cleaned JSON maps the source's stated answer text, Vesak, to answer index 2 while explicitly flagging the record for review.
This is preferable to silently changing the answer to Sonam Losoong simply because the source prints '(b)', because the developer instruction for this project is to preserve the source's terminology and identify inconsistencies rather than secretly reconcile them.
From an exam-preparation standpoint, students should not treat this record as fully verified until reviewed against an authoritative edition or original SSC question.
The only information directly supported by the source explanation is that it intends 'Vesak' as the answer and describes it as commemorating the birth, enlightenment and death of Gautama Buddha.
Q524 immediately following this record also explicitly identifies Vesak with Buddha, reinforcing the source's intended association with Vesak.
Therefore the current bulk-import record uses Vesak as the intended answer but carries `needs_review: true`.
यह source entry internally inconsistent है और permanent publication से पहले इसकी समीक्षा की जानी चाहिए। प्रश्न के options में option (b) 'Sonam Losoong' है जबकि option (c) 'Vesak' है, लेकिन printed solution में '(b) Vesak' लिखा हुआ है। इसके बाद explanation स्पष्ट रूप से कहती है कि Vesak Sikkimese Bhutia का ऐसा celebration है जो Sikkimese lunar calendar के 10वें महीने में आता है और यह Gautama Buddha के birth, enlightenment तथा death को commemorate करता है। क्योंकि option list में Vesak वास्तव में option (c) है, cleaned JSON में source द्वारा बताए गए answer text 'Vesak' को answer index 2 अर्थात तीसरे option से map किया गया है और record को `needs_review: true` किया गया है। केवल printed letter '(b)' देखकर उत्तर को Sonam Losoong कर देना उचित नहीं होगा क्योंकि source explanation स्वयं Vesak कहती है। इस project में source की terminology और framing को preserve करना है तथा source inconsistency होने पर उसे चिह्नित करना है, silently correct नहीं करना है। Exam preparation के लिए विद्यार्थियों को इस record को authoritative verification से पहले fully verified fact नहीं मानना चाहिए। Source से सीधे supported बात केवल इतनी है कि intended answer Vesak है और explanation इसे Gautama Buddha के जन्म, ज्ञान प्राप्ति तथा मृत्यु से जोड़ती है। इसके तुरंत बाद Q524 भी Vesak को Buddha से जोड़ता है, जिससे source का intended theme और स्पष्ट होता है। इसलिए current JSON में answer Vesak रखा गया है, लेकिन review flag के साथ।
